Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
The center of a two-way road is marked with two solid yellow lines. A slow car is ahead of you. What do the lines mean for passing it?
A follows silver B in the right-hand lane of a two-way road with double solid yellow center lines. The opposing lane is empty.
Correct answer: Neither direction may cross the lines to pass, so stay behind the car.
Why
Double solid yellow lines often mark curves, hills and busy areas where a pass in either direction could end in a head-on crash. Stay behind the slow vehicle with a safe following distance. Wait until the line on your side becomes broken and the road ahead is clear.
